this is a message for everyone who is 22. if you’re 22 please stop worrying. take a deep breath eat a bagel maybe. everything that feels impossible is going to work itself out. have a great day

Since its that time of year again, I’ve been thinking about Over the Garden Wall, and I think one of my favorite things about it is that, other than the fact that they’re lost in some strange woods, their problems are so normal. Like, in so many shows the problems are things like “both of my parents are dead and their last wish was for me to do this really emotionally taxing life long quest” or whatever, but Wirts biggest problem is that he cant tell a girl that he likes her, and that his mom somewhat recently remarried, and his half brother is kind of annoying in that little kid way. They’re just such normal problems, and it feels like its one of the few heroes journey sort of tales where the main character is just some kid. Hes not some chosen one, hes not the most popular kid at school, but hes obviously not outcast because pretty much everyone who sees him in the Halloween episode greets him in a friendly way and try to include him. He’s just a normal kid, but he still has these unique little traits that make him interesting, like that he plays clarinet, and writes poetry, and is kind of a pushover but is also really passive aggressive when he wants to be. Its just such a good show, and every time I rewatch it I find another little thing that I love about it.
